Hello and welcome to the Northeast Bank fourth quarter and fiscal year 2025 earnings conference call. (Operator Instructions) Please be advised that today's conference is being recorded. It is now my pleasure to introduce CEO, Rick Wayne.
Thank you and good afternoon to all of you that are listening to this call with me. Our Pat Dignan, our Chief Operating Officer, and Head of Commercial Credit for the bank, and Richard Cohen, our CFO after I make some comments, Pat will follow up in a lively conversation about our loan book.
Both about commercial real estate loans and the SBA, and some very helpful information about our multi-family portfolio in New York City, I think you'll find all that quite interesting and after Pat's comments, Richard, Pat and I are available for any questions that you might have.
